    Value for Money

    PURCHASE:
    New

    DRIVING:
    Few hundred kilometers

    Exterior

     The overall exterior is up to mark and it looks much better than some of the hatch back cars selling in this segment. The back view is different and it looks like an smaller version of an luxury car. The body design, head lamp, tail lamp, handles, micro antenna looks like made for Grand i1o only and it fits well with the car.

    Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

     Magna is the second version and it has almost all basic features other than Music system and parking sensor and I added music system from Sony and Video parking camera to fulfill the same. The space, comfort and seats are well placed and does not give a compact car feel while 5 people are inside car. 

    Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

     The Engine performance is up to the mark as per a 1200CC engine and it gives required power as per the need. Gear box position and the shifting of gear make the driving easy. Steering is electrical motor driven and driving with it gives pleasure though there is scope of improvement. My Vehicle gives mileage 11KM/lit (Petrol) inside city which will improve after 1st service. Brakes are a plus factor that adds up to safety.

    Ride Quality & Handling

     Comfortable ride inside city ( I have not taken to NH) and Handling is good where as there is scope of improvement which will make  more smiles😊 on road while driving.

    Final Words

    I own the car since 21st Sept 2013 and I find the Grand i10 a Descent family hatch back that appears as a mini version of some luxury car and is gives you back the value for money😎

    Areas of improvement  

     1. Tail lamp cover fades and gives a dull look.

    2. Battery was getting discharged if car stays for 3 days without running and as there was some oversupply of current to Instrument Cluster( where you have tachometer, trip meter etc.) and that was draining battery. They have upgraded the firmware of cluster after complain but still I need to test it again by putting car 6 days at home without running. This seems a serious defect ( as you need to push the car to start) and Hyundai should voluntarily upgrade without waiting for customer complain. 

    3. The fixed Back could have been replaced with adjustable head rest.

    4. The city mileage should be improved.

    5. I got fitted my mud flaps after 2 months because it was not available. this calls for an improvement.

     

    6. Its already 4 months since lunch and no accessories are available with dealer. So, need to be more proactive to get accessories in the first month of launch
